If you loved Mariage à l'italienne, try Miracle à Milan
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Vittorio De Sica, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mariage à l'italienne, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Miracle à Milan is
The camera watches as a cabbage delivers a baby like a suburban stork. A benevolent crone raises him then dies, leaving Totò to trade orphanage grit for Milan’s mean streets. When developers come knocking on his ramshackle kingdom, he pulls a magic turnip out of the plot and everyone believes the miracle.
